Review summary

I would take this cruise again in a heartbeat. I wouldn't change anything about my experience. Main dining was really good, but specialty dining felt like you didn't pay enough for this service and this delectable food. It was definitely a luxury experience on the Celebrity Edge. I can't wait to return to the Edge.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All the food that I had in the main dining rooms tasted and was presented like specialty dining. I tried all 4 main dining restaurant and the service in each was excellent. The staff made you feel like a VIP due to their attentiveness. Please try the Steak house and the roof top garden, because food and service was excellent.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
They look good, but I didn't use any of this.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
I loved the singers who were amazing talents. The tribute to Aretha Franklin was so close to the real Queen. She did her proud. The comedian was excellent. I'd love to see him again. I laughed so hard. I still can't explain most of the things that the magician did. I'm still checking my glasses.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff in the El Bacio cafe and the buffet were so personable. They remembered you after the first couple of days. They were always willing to assist or to get something for you. I felt like I was in my favorite diner or coffee shop. The captain was visible and always speaking to people. He was always making time to greet and see how passengers were doing. And when he spoke and the beginning and end of the cruise you could feel that his heart was in it and he meant what he said.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I think the design is great. I love that they had so many little intimate spot to just chill and converse. The music never drowned out your conversation. The ship was so clean. Every time we docked you see someone cleaning the outside. I love that they built in a scaffold to clean the windows. You always had a clear view to take pictures.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was very spacious and I loved all the hidden storage next to the closet. I also loved the smart automation with the infinite balcony and the blackout screen. Also the pre-programmed light settings were excellent. It took out the guess work of what switch does what.

Ship tip

Make sure you don't miss lobster night. It was amazing.

Ports of call

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas
